    Just an update here that Vates were able to fix my pool. I assume they used the script that was just uploaded so if any one is wondering the impact, it should be fine.

    @gcpeters4 said: @john.c This is a good idea as well. If the previous suggestion of trying to do a DNS round robin approach doesn't work, this may be my best option. Thanks for taking the time to provide your suggestion! By the way my suggestion is recommended best practice from Microsoft for their Active Directory software and/or technology. My suggestion will be more likely to work if your DNS servers and requests have issues with Round Robin configuration. Plus with my solution you can easily add more servers as domain controllers to the cluster, as required and use replication to keep them consistent and up to date.

    the last rewrite of the stream processing ( spring 2025 ) focused on stability and memory footprint, and , on a standard cpu, it tops at around 300MB/s per backup job. Your benchmarks are very interesting, and they confirm most of it. this limit was not really an issue since, in most case the xapi was limiting around 100MB/s per disk , but it will be more a more visible limit Note that master have some fixes on the memory usage (not related to backups) That's why we have started an internal workforce focused on performance, with all the teams from the kernel to the backups, including storage, network and xapi. If I can brag a little : [image: 1779106650898-afd7b59b-a4f0-4a92-88ee-2c7ba52d18bf-image.jpeg] i9 , nvme disk , backup to a nvme disk in passthrough, xoa and vm are on the same host, so it's quite far from real world data, but it shows where the limit is

    Rolling Updates Failed

    Hi! ISO-SR over HBA/FC would be very nice, especially when migration form a SAN vmware-System to XCP-NG. One other thing is altering. Errors like "VM cannot be migrated" or similar should not be silent but should be very visible / even mailed to the admin. Another thing (could be cosmetical though) in my opinion is that a failed Rolling upgrade remains visible with a half fulled progress bar in the task-view. this is confusing.

    Large VM Migration fails, host has free disk - Storage_error

    I managed to do the migration by splitting over the two storages the remove system has. This made it work and I managed to move that one VM. However I still have a second one It's thick provisioned (LVM - never can remember the terms thin/thick). Offline isn't an option unfortunately since I need the services running, can't take if off for 15 hours. But since two of the services are docker containers, both having a separate disk of 500GB, I can make it work by setting up a two new systems and moving everything from the container there. Which would reduce the size by 1TB and make thing easier to manage. Was hoping I could finally upgrade the main xcp-ng last weekend.

    @Pilow Does disk show up after you do the snapshot? If it is able to do the snapshot there is a high chance it can boot up. So try booting up (and check for disk) and shut it down and do the snapshot at that time if the disk show up. It helps to boot up on the old v5 commit and check from that side too if you have both copy before the commit update. Yep I can confirm that snapshot doesn't always work. But using the older v5 that used to work before the update does get it showing up on the newer v5 commit if I go through whole snapshot, revert, etc. one of those case work.

    We are not energy efficiency experts, while EasyVirt people are. I think they already have some stuff and it might be just a matter of plumbing.

    Tracked it down to it thinking there was a pool version mismatch... then when I tried to transition to a new master it would fail with Xmlrpc_client.Connection_reset ... digging deeper it was complaining that it couldn't restore from the wrong version. Lots of head banging later... I setup a backup for the pool metadata and forced the backup immediately. TADA... I can now change the master with no issues at all.

    Yes, there's a possible weird combo between XOSTOR and HA in some situations. Let me add @ronan-a or @dthenot in the loop. It's likely that XOA disconnection is just a visible symptom of something else. It's not ultra trivial to reproduce though.
